Dublin Photo walk #2 | Photos

This week was the second photo walk I’ve organised in Dublin and it was a great success! Thanks to everybody who turned out, it was super to see so many new faces!

With having a mix up in communication between a few cool skaters/bmx bikers, getting told off by the Luas and the Titanic scene on a barge it was quite eventful. I have a few quirky ideas for the next walk! Once I have it planned out a bit better I’ll post up a date & time.

 

Another great Dublin Photo Walk!

As always if you know/think of any way to improve these walks please feel free to send me an email, I’d love to hear all your ideas!!

Pano-Tastic! 60 image panoramic photo

60 Image Pano Photo, CO, USA

You might be thinking, that doesn’t look like much of a pano, right? Below is a zoomed in shot of my mate… can you find him?

Zoomed in - 60 Image Pano Photo, CO, USA

Below is the 60 image pano photo , you can zoom in/out and around with your mouse wheel.
I tried uploading the full image 15077×7776 pixels but Seadragon didn’t seem to like it (it was a 30mb file afterall). This image is 6000×3095 pixels, not quite as big as the oringal but it still gives you quite a bit of room to look around the amazing landscape!

 

 

Shot taken just outside Crestone, CO, USA – on a lovely long hike!

Golden Locks

Girls Hair in the Irish wind | County Mayo, Ireland

I was recently down the west of Ireland, Westport in County Mayo actually. A beautiful part of the country and where my amazing grandfather was born. I got this great shot of one of my cousins on a blustery Irish day.

Ice Cold Miller at the beach

HDR Beer/Miller Photograph at Brittas Beach

After yesterdays spontaneous shot of my beer I decided to get up early and head to Brittas Bay to do a bit of product photography. Sure, what else would you do at 5am on the beach?

The Very first and last shots are HDR photographs. I also took this HDR photo of brittas bay the same morning.

Yup, I sure did go in for a swim (spur of the moment), the water was so warm! Sorry, no pictures of that, ladies ;-)

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the shots, let me know what you think!
Thanks!

Lone Chair

Red Chair in Charleville Caste, County Offaly, Ireland

I was down in the beautiful Charleville castle, County Offaly this weekend and boy is the place amazing. Everytime I go there it’s just striking! I’ve lots and lots of shots to go through and process but thought I’d do one quickly before I head off West for a few days
